Description

Ionia Uncertain Mint 650-600BC “Striated” Design Electrum 1/12 Stater NGC AU.
One of the earliest coins in the world with a Striated or “Ripple” design thought to be the River waters waves. Extremely Rare in all grades and denominations.
Minted nearly three thousand years ago in Ionia- modern-day Turkey. The coin is made from electrum, an abundant naturally occurring alloy of gold and silver that was found in stream beds near Lydia and Ionia. The epicenter of early coinage conception. The striated lines on the front of the coin are believed to represent flowing water or “ripples”, underneath lay the Electrum.
Ionian Staters were struck in different sizes, each representing different values of money. There are six primary sizes, ranging from a Full Stater down to a tiny 1/24th stater. All are extremely rare, however the larger sizes are the most infrequently encountered.
